BERLIN, Oct. 29-It was arranged at the
beginning Of the week that the Gar should
leave Copenhagen and travel via Germany
to Moscow. The imperial saloon train
lying at Wirbullen, a Polish station, was
ordered to take up the Car at Lubbock.
The Berlin court circle expected the cour-
tesy OF visit to the Emperor William en-
route. Then cauk news that the arrange
ments had been countermanded, succeeded
by the startling report that the Gar had
gone TO Stockholm, travelling via Malmo
by the ordinary express, with two attend
ants only. German embassy adyices from
Copenhagen confirmed the hurried passage
of some important Russian dignitary to
Stockholm, where the imperial yacht, Carl
M, lay ready TO receive him and put toseain

the Gar was still at Fredcnsburg and
until the middle of November.

received ut the railway station Thursday
night by the Russian charge da' llaires, who
accompanied him 10 his hotel, where he re-
mained without being visited by any one
connected with the German court or
army. His bcllicosc speech at Dunkirk

doubted fact. The grand duke resumed
his journey yesterday unnoticed.

similar in some aspects to tho Schnacbol
affair; but, unlike that affair, II does not
stir the public pulse or official feeling. The
inquiry into the matter, which is in
progress has already shown that Glinke,
being challenged on crossing the line, fled

ut the first shot. The 1lsit Gazette says
that Glinke died ON German soil. The
